Abstract

The National Endowment for the Arts and the General Services Administrations's Art-in-Architecture Program were to employ a unique approach to sponsorship of sculpture in the
contemporary setting. By using the situation in Calais and
the issues it raised, one can compare and examine the
operational processes of these two organizations in relation
to the role and function of publicly funded urban sculpture.
Through this study, I believe, one can achieve a better
understanding of the complex issues surrounding government
sponsorship of public sculpture, and a suggestion of future
considerations can be presented.
